Strong in All Things But Especially
in Religion.

Rev. j. j. Hall preached in the First
Free Baptist church on the Power OF
Faith" taking for his text /. John ", A.:
This is the victory which overcometh the
world, even our faith" Mr. Hall said:
Faith lies at the foundation of all the great
enterprises and achievements of this or any
age. Nations go to war on faith. Young
men leave their Eastern homes on faith; in
ventors work in faith, and men enter business
ON faith, and in fact the difference frequently
between q great man and mere pigmy is q
difference i'm faith. We are not surprised,
therefore, to find the scripture speak much
of faith. and presents it to us as of the first
necessity in all of ones religious life. Faith
Is being in that state of mind wherein one is
impressed, influenced and controlled by
things which are unseen. 1t is belief in the
word of another There is commercial
faith, political faith, a moral and religious
faith. Christian faith. or that faith by which
one comes into the Christian life
is an act of trust wherein q
sinner commits himself TO saviour.
1t is not blind act, but includes knowledge
or perception of the truth as it affects our
condition, our obligations and our wants.
know of no better word for saving faith than
that old word trust. Is is reliance upon the
Willingness and ability of another to save, to
keep, to purify, TO mould and TO direct. 1t is
not so much believing in Christ as it is be-
impression or feeling. You people who de-
pend upon feeling had better get a feeling
barometer and test your standing thereby
True faith will produce great results. 1t
means the coming of Christ to take posses
sion of ones life. 1t means the influence OF
the spirit of Christ upon the thought and
affection. Faith is progressive and its glori-
Gus contamination is a complete union be-
tween the soul and its divine Lord. do be-
leve there are different degrees and stages OF
faith, and that faith is continuous In its de-
velopment and growth. In certain way
Christ can do nothing for and in some per-
sons because of their unbelief. To others He
Influences them a little, and only a little, be-
cause they have but a little faith; but with
others there is a blending OF souls. His
thought, his love, his power become theirs,
because they are strong in faith. Cultivate
a full comprehensive faith, that shall rest in
God in the storm as well as in the sunshine,
in trial as in prosperity.

MAI. RALE's GARDEN.
The Salad of the Life of Respected
Citizen.

At last there has been discovered one
man in Minneapolis who has real estate
that is not for sale. Yesterday the genial
secretary of the board of trade was heard
to say that his house and his garden on
Ninth street were not for sale. He could
buy another house, but he could not buy
another home. Maj. Hale attributes much
of his energy and healthfulness to the fact
that he has good garden and works in it
himself. His early vegetables and his
flowers have wide fame among his friends.
II know men who pay out good deal of
money every year trying to make fine
garden, but, bless you. my dear sir. money
cannot make garden. A man must have
a natural love for the work and practical
knowledge of its methods to have fine
garden. Gardening. why gardening is an
exact science! You should see my tulips;
the other day took some beauties that had
grown and bloomed in my garden to sick
friend, and how they were appreciated! L
grow twice as much early garden stuff as
my family can use. You should just see my
lettuce and radishes-they were up two
weeks ago, sir. No; l couldn't think of
parting with my garden; it is my doctor,
and my flowers are my children" Thus
spake the secretary of the board of trade,
and who would take issue with what he
said?

spoke at st. Paul to his newly organized con-
gregation there. Tonight there will be no
meeting of the debating society at this
church, but next Thursday the monthly bust

AT SIT. PAUL,S.
Bishop Whipple Preaches-.A Class
of Forty Confirmed.

At st. Paurs church yesterday the serv-
ices were conducted by Bishoy Whipple
who preached and administered the rite of
confirmation to class of forty.
The bishop preached in his usual earnest
manner-indeed it is pretty hard to see
wherein old age affects him, save. perhaps,
in the appearance Of a few more lines in his
face. His winter in Florida will most likely
preserve him to the diocese that love him
so much and for which he has done so
much for many years. The name of Bishop
Whipple in the Episcopal church has become
household name because of the splendid
acknowledgements, academic and otherwise
erected at Faribault-and the Christian work
he has done among the Indians. The bishop
preached, as he is wont of late, ON the love of
the Saviour to a crowded congregation, be-
seeching the people to keep this always be-
fore them. Whatever else they might
be in doubt about, this never, that
Jesus Christ loves all men. He
administered confirmation to forty, and with
the rector, Frank r. Millspaugh he admins
tered the holy communion to 100. All claim
that the rector, in fourteen months has bap-
tised more people than before in the seven
years of history of the parish, presented
more for confirmation and that his vestry
have raised about 1000 over and above the
regular expenses Of the parish. Mr.. Mills
paugh, the bishop calls one OF his boys, be-
cause educated for the most part in his

THE DIVORCE COMMODlTY.
Some Curious Cases Among ThOs,
Seeking separations.

AS remarked on several previous occa-
sionS, the courts of Minneapolis probably
turn out as many divorces. i'll proportion to
the size Of the city, as do the courts of Chi
cago. And yet the judges all state that
they do not grant a divorce unless it is
fully proved that a divorce should be
granted. for the best interests of the COM
munity at large or the parties directly in
terested. In about nine cases out of ten
the person, be it man or woman. who Sc
cures the divorce, does not wait longer
than one day at the most before entering
into matrimonial alliance with some one
else. In many cases the license is taken
out before the judgment of divorce has
been entered in the books of the clerk of
courts. AS an illustration. Martin V.
Sutherland secured divorce from Lima
j. Sutherland Saturday morning on
the ground of adultery. and in the after
noon he procured a license to wed Sadie
Mackey. This fact has given rise to the
suspicion that if the person desiring a di-
vOrce were not infatuated with some one
else the matter would never have come
into the courts at all. 1t would seem that
the parties live together happily enough un-
til some one comes between them, and then
old quarrels are raked up and old indiscre-
tions, long since consigned to oblivion, are
brought to the surface again and eventually
divorce proceedings are begun. Speaking
of divorces calls to mind the complaint that
was filed in one recently, which has caused
young girl, as good and innocent as the
day is long, untold misery. 1t was a
woman bringing the suit, and she alleged
in her complaint that her husband had
been unduly intimate with a well-knowr
and handsome young lady whose character
is. and always has been above suspicion
Upon seeing the charge in the newspapers
the young lady was made dangerously ill,
and even now is mot entirely well. The
woman who made the charge was seen by
the young lady's friends and in answer to q
question as to why she had made the accu.
satiOn. replied that as the girl had known
Mr.. - at one time, she did not know but
what she might have been guilty of the
charge. 1t is quite probable that, as soon as
the Gdivorce proceedings are finished, she
will be prosecuted for malicious libel.

THE LIFE OF CHRIST.
He Was Carpenter while Here
Upon Earth.

Rev. M. D. Shutter spoke yesterday
morning at the Church of the Redeemer
from Mark vi. 3.
The verse before us contains suggestion
concerning the unwritten history of Jesus.
He is called the carpenter. He was quiet,
transformations workman. His old neighborS
and friends were surprised when they found
that ne had set up for prophet. Perhaps
they had employed him, from time to time,
to do their work. He may have repaired
their houses or fashioned the rude articles of
furniture those houses contained. Whatever
his inward experiences may have been, it is
certain that he lived among men and took
part in the employments of men. AS Jesus
entered personally into the every day
work OF men, let US carry his spirit
with us into all our avocations and the duties
they impose, The picture of Christ at that
carpenters bench in Nazareth suggests the
thought of Him in all our common life to-day
The sacred and secular cannot be success
fully divorced. Life is one Every duty is
religious duty. Every employment is sacred.
Every duty of shop or field or Office or house
hold is a religious duty as well us prayer or
praise. The same principles apply in both
spheres. There is not one set of ten COM
mandments for weekdays and another for
Sundays. The same motives must influence.
The New Testament teaches, whatsoever
we do, do all to the glory Of God" The king
dom of God needs for its progress and success
the secular as well as the religious activities
of men. There is nothing in one
department of life that does not
affect every other. Both the sa-
cred and secular are needed for the complete
development of the human soul. The aim of
man is not to prepare for heaven, in the old
sense, along single line; into that prepara-
ton must enter every element of labor or
pleasure that quickens our growth or expands
our manhood.
A recognition of this truth would prevent
the application to business of separate code
of morals. Crookedness in business will
warp the straightest creed. The lie of Mon
day will undo the work of Sunday. A single
unkind word or unjust deed will pull down
more of character than week of devotion
will build. This truth exalts and ennobles
common life and lifts our labor from the
level of bondage into the realm OF glad and
loving service. Everything is divine. To
that young carpenter of Nazareth, the shop
of his earthly father was as sacred place as
the holy and beautiful house of his heavenly
father on Zion To him the labor of the day
was worship as true and as sweet as the oc-
casions when the tribes went up to give
thanks to the God af Jacob. He was about
his Fathers business when he handled the
plane and the saw, as well as when he spoke
on the mountain and died on the cross. Let
the thought be help and inspiration. 1t
will sanctify our common work, and the
deeds we perform, as ordinary duties, will
become transformed into holy offerings upon
Jehovah's affairs.

DURING APRIL.

Month Just Ended.

Health Officer Kilvington reports 1862
deaths and 112 births for the month of

and all they want is Il little more education
on the subject" He laid considerable
stress Oil the matter of at once securing

SILL 25 on contents; the insurance on
buildings was Sc, SIS and on contents

BEGINNING OF THE END.
The Mayor Turns the Police over to
the Commission.

The police commission will tonight COM
plete its examination of the applications of
members of the police force, and then will
make up its mind as to who will stay or go,
but it is not likely that any changes
will be announced before Tuesday. The
question OF who is to be superintendent of
police creates considerable comment.
Many think that Col. Hill is to be retained,
others that the position will be offered
to w. M. Bracket. Col. j. w. Henion
is also said to be an applicant
whose claims will be strongly urged. At
to-night's meeting Mayor Ames will turn
over the control of the force to the
commission. The law directs that
the commission is to have charge
of the force, but by resolution il

Way Not the Best.

DIR. H. NJ. Simmons preached on revivals
and regeneration. He said:
Jesus illustrated regeneration by the wind
and we should remember that there are
many kinds of it. Rev. Samuel Jones wants a
spiritual cyclone in Minneapolis; but cyclones
are only one form of wind, and not the best.
The gentler breezes, carrying GOODNESS and

symbols of the divine spirit, which is regen

1t is not the wrong-dOer alone who suf-
fers for his crime. In nine cases ont Of
ten it causes some one else more pain than
1T does himself. Saturday morning an
aged couple came into the court house and

what means they could secure the release
of Clem Beck, indicted for forgery. Both
the man and the woman were bowed with
the weight of years, and their grief at a
relatives sin was plainly visible. 1t was
with difficulty that the two signed the bond
to secure the release of the erring young
man, but it was a labor Of love. The sight
was indeed pathetic one, and taught a
lesson that will not be soon forgotten by
